Fig Marmalade

(Incir Marmeladi)

500 gr (14-15 green fresh figs) peeled
2 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 tsp mastic, roll glass on the mastic to make it powdery (or use mortar)
1/2 of lemon juice

Melt the sugar and water in a medium sized pot. Add the figs and cook for about 20-25 minutes. Then add the mastic. Use the immersion blender to puree. Cook for about 10 more minutes over a little bit under the medium heat.

Put a drop of marmalade on a cold plate, if it is not runny and stays, then it's done. Add the lemon juice, stir. After 2 minutes turn the heat off. Wait 2-3 minutes until it cools down. Then place into a clean jar, then close the lid tightly. Store in a dark and cool place.

Place some Fig Marmalade on the thin crackers and sprinkle walnuts pieces over the tops:)
